    Why? With Rosicky, wilshere, ox, walcott and welbeck all back by then how would we even fit a new attacking option in the squad? There's no way all those players will be injured again at the same time after Jan.

    Given our recent history - actually not just recent - how likely is that they will all be back and we won't have anyone else out?

    Outstanding result.

    Was it last season Montero ripped us apart?

    As it is usually the case after bad results.

    To be honest, after the first half performance (one of the worst in the season), I was willing to settle for a draw.
    But the lads proved me wrong in the second half. Very solid, the shop closed correctly and having scored first meant we could play the counter attack.

    I am lost for words for the 2nd half Ozil, another brilliant performance.
    Quite satisfied with Campbell, worked really hard, and took the goal nicely.
    Kudos to Cech too.
    The only negative was the high line in the back. You can't possibly play it with Mert in. We were rather lucky that Gomis completely messed it up.

    Couldn't really tell due to a choppy stream but did Cech take Gomis out before Bellerin came in to clear the ball or did Gomis just flop to the ground?

    Missed the game had my young lads game then my own.

    Super result I'd have called a 1-0 a league winning result! Looking forward to MOTD.

    Delighted for Campbell, fair play to Arsene for putting him in. Years gone by he'd have went safer with Flamini or something.

    One more league game until the break and s few bodies back. Beat Spurs snd w've a great run of games

    Jeez my stream was terrible too, midweek it was fantastic.
    Bellerin cleared it after a lung busting run.

    Well in Bellerin. Up there with Ledley King nicking it from Robben's toe...

    I haven't seen one of those how many points have we got from corresponding fixtures to last season

    This leads me to believe that we must be up on them

    I think we were level prior to today, so that puts us 3 points clear

    Great result today over what has been a real bogey team for us, added to that Chelsea and Utd dropping points, such a pity that City scored a second but maybe that was asking a bit much

    In fairness the Gomid chance it was Kos who played him on he was too left and too deep

    Glad Campbell proved me wrong today. Looking forward to MOTD.

    The perfect day: Chelsea lose, Arsenal win, All Blacks win.

    getting loaned out, periodic appearances etc was not giving him a fair chance
    I think a run of a few games will show him to be of value as a key squad member.

    So because you've been calling for Campbell to get a run for a while not that means that AB can't be happy that he's proven a few of us who didn't have the same faith, wrong? :confused:

    Didn't really see the game today, but good reports from Joel Campbell's camp! In fairness, I had no faith in him, but his work rate was THE most required skill-set today. Let's face it. Aaron has been industrious, but offered little else offensively, Ox was poor on both counts... This guy has his chance, took it well. I look forward to seeing more of him now. Well done Joel.
